After being stuck in a creative rut over the past couple months (while also getting back on my feet from the move to a new city), I finally finished an illustration. If you’ve seen my recent posts, you’ll know that I’ve been struggling with pinning down a particular style that keeps eluding me. I’m really happy with the results of this piece, and I’m feeling more confident in my journey to establishing this personal style. I hope you like it as well! Let me know what you think!

I LOVE to sketch concepts, but I always seem to hit a block when it comes to adding color…

Does anyone else ever struggle with this?

Some days, I struggle to exist. I just…am. Even the smallest task feels like it requires the energy to move a mountain. I can’t seem to - I don’t have the “want” or the energy to do anything. I can’t even find joy or motivation in activities that I typically enjoy. They just seem like too big of a chore… I hate these days. Most people won’t understand. They chalk it up to “being lazy” or simply advise me to “snap out of it.” They may not see it, but it’s like an enormous invisible weight that periodically drags my life to a halt. #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #depressionisreal #bipolardepression #adhdawareness #adultingishard https://www.instagram.com/p/CqVuBMvLcfw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

One of my favorite characters 🐾 I started this style of dog illustrations back in middle school. Rex still holds a special place in my heart of hearts 🖤 #illustration #animalillustration #womenillustrators #childrensbookillustration #animalcharacters #storybookart https://www.instagram.com/p/CqScGuAOeam/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“All America lies at the end of the wilderness road, and our past is not a dead past, but still lives in us. Our forefathers had civilization inside themselves, the wild outside. We live in the civilization they created, but within us the wilderness still lingers. What they dreamed, we live, and what they lived, we dream.” —T. K.
